Eminem Lyrics Post Leads To Teenager’s Arrest

    A 15-year-old boy was arrested for terrorist threats Monday (August 31) in Fresno, California after school officials alerted police of an Instagram post with Eminem lyrics, The Fresno Bee reports.

    The sophomore reportedly posted lyrics to Eminem’s song “I’m Back” that reference the 1999 shooting at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado that left 15 people dead.

    “I take seven kids from Columbine, stand ’em all in a line, add an AK-47, a revolver, a nine, a MAC-11 and it oughtta solve the problem of mine” the post read. “And that’s a whole school of bullies shot up all at one time. I’m just like Shady and just as crazy as the world was over this whole Y2K thing.”

    San Joaquin Memorial High School, the school where the suspect attends, and St. Anthony’s Catholic School, where the student previously attended, cancelled classes yesterday (September 1) in light of the reported threat.

    Police say that there were multiple factors to create alarm, such as the boy’s mother died, that he broke up with his girlfriend, that he quit the football team and that he was not performing well in school. He was described as a “loner” and “socially awkward.”

    “These are really all of the things we look for in individuals that historically have been involved in incidents like Columbine,” Fresno police Chief Jerry Dyer said in a press conference. “So we’re very fortunate that this was brought to our attention.”

    Law enforcement obtained a search warrant for the suspect’s home and found multiple firearms, ammunition and a bulletproof vest. The student and his father said they were unaware of the guns, which were unregistered. The father, who has an active restraining order against him, could face weapons charges. Police confiscated the weaponry, as well as the student’s iPad and cellphone.

    The family lawyer, Linden Lindahl, said that the student is not the boy that law enforcement is portraying him as. The suspect is claiming he was hacked.

    He was cooperative,” Lindahl said, according to ABC 30 Action News.”He spoke with the officers. Denied being bullied. Denied posting the Instagram.”

    The teenager is currently in juvenile detention.

    1. The child that was arrested is clearly crying out for help…if you know a thing about Eminem…you would know he too was bullied and beat up on more than one occasion. And I’m sure Marshall is man enough too admit he was bullied…The school is negligent and the bullies should be arrested not the poor kid rhyming like Eminem….Take responsibility you negligent sorry butts and keeps schools safe..and provide proper environments…and stop passing the buck and blaming Eminem lyrics…The School is negligent if they don’t help that poor kid and the judge who decides the case of this poor kid best choose wisely…And help not hurt…Im so fed up with injustice.

      .”I take seven kids from Columbine, stand ’em all in a line, add an AK-47, a revolver, a nine, a MAC-11 and it oughtta solve the problem of mine.

      1. Nice talking. I think that kid should get another shot the bullies r probably laughing their butts off by now everyone always looks at the bad side of eminem what about the good side he carries a lot of stress on him

      2. Motherfuckers will never see the fucking good side and pick sense out of non sense always the negative em this em that wake the fuck up I wouldn’t let Hailey listen to me either what the fuck that tells you it’s a money making business lines are just put together as long as the rhyme and the make a hit who give a fuck what happens next

    2. Hey EM If you can’t play WITH the BG DG, Keep yo ass on the porch…cause your not a kid no more…Man up Brother…

      1. Hey T Zone if you can’t know your stuff on rap music, keep yo ass on the porch… cause you don’t know shit obviously, he recorded this 15 years ago on ”I’m Back”, then they censored it. He repeated it on Rap God to ”see if he’s gonna get away with it this time, because his not as big as he once was”. Stop trying to hate… you ain’t now kid are you… Man up Bro!

    3. Something ain’t right…Y2k…not cool …that kid can’t even relate to Y2k…wtf…looks like propaganda set up…

      1. Eminem said that sentence in rap god, yes you’re right.
        But it was originally said in “I’m Back” and the reason for mentioning i AGAIN in Rap God is because some of the words were censored when I’m Back was released cause of the school shooting.

        Eminem just added that line in Rap God to see if it would get censored again or not.

      2. What makes this stupid comment even funnier is that in Rap God Eminem says that he’s fucking quoting himself.

    4. That line was from an earlier song when Marilyn mason was blamed for that shooting Em even says mason was getting a lot of heat at the time so he took some off him. In Rap God he says see if I get away with it now on mm lp1 he said it he repeated it in rap god saying see if I get away with it now that I ain’t as big as I was

    5. But Tyler the Creator is banned in England for having a censored version lyrics compared to this,i say racism is still alive

      1. Eminem has been banned all over places because of his lyrics. if i’m not wrong even in England for a while, way back. But also in other cities where they denied him to perform because of lyrics or drugs etc. Racism is still alive because you keep it alive, buddy! 😉
        Think positive AND know your stuff.

      2. Race has nothing to do with it, Julien Blanc was banned from entering the UK the year before that and he is white. I’d say it has more to do with the fact Eminem is sellout act that would bring in tons of revenue whereas Tyler is comparatively unimportant. Azaelea Banks is a fucking moron that thinks everything is a race issue. Stop listening to her bullshit and use some common sense.

      3. English people are the biggest racists f.aggots in the world. Disgusting history of invading,murdering,stealing,raping other countries and using their people as slaves. How many countries have they destroyed and left war torn? fucking scum. Makes me laugh when they complain about imigrants, I mean really? Getting mad when they invade countries and some of those people decide to follow them back?LOL, SMFH.

    6. This line was first rapped on ”i’m back” / the marshall mathers lp. They then censored it. He repeated it on ”Rap God” to …see if he gets away with it since he’s not as big as he once was…
      I recommend every REAL hiphop fan to listen to that first album, that one was sick as fuck!! REAl HARDCORE RAP. Lyrical genius right there! A classic and still hot as fuck today!

    7. If Any Anti-stan Gets Me Angry I’d Fucking Come To America With Me Revolver And 9,put All The Anti-stan Iine And Blow Off The Rest Of Their Body From Their Mind

    8. Fuck white people. Why should I care if white kids shoot white kids? I’m a school teacher and inside I laugh and love it when I see a white boy getting picked on by either the Blacks or Latinos.

      1. And this is why our society will never progress. Compassionless dirt bag, primitive minds that cling to racial structures, and unfortunately this dumb mind is shaping the minds of young ones,.

      2. I’m a brotha and don’t agree with your ideology. Let your peace and joy be a light to the so called white man. Don’t belittle him and hate him. Do NOT be like him, for we must be a light to the Gentiles.

      3. Instead of investing your time and effort in changing what you see, you’re a lazy enabler? So much for making a difference ‘school teacher’
